A variety of substituents bonded to quaternary carbons exert marked deshielding effects at antiperiplanar γ carbons. The shifts produced by methyl groups are ca. 2 ppm, while hydroxyl groups cause shifts as large as 6 ppm. These shifts are particularly clearly demonstrated by the C-19 shieldings in 5α-substituted steroids. For 9,10-disubstituted decalins, the effect is such that cis and trans isomers are not easily distinguished from their 13C spectra. These shifts contrast sharply with the corresponding effects found for substituents bonded to less highly substituted carbon skeletons.

The cis- and trans-isomers of four para-substituted (three disubstituted and one tetrasubstituted) tetraphenylethylenes have been synthesized, separated, and characterized by either dipole moment or X-ray analysis. The rates of thermal isomerization of the disubstituted derivatives in benzene solution correlate with a substituent parameter reflecting substituent effects on benzylic radical stabilities (σ•), which reflects the biradical nature of the transition state for thermal isomerization in this system. A significant rate enhancement is observed for the tetrasubstituted derivative, in which merostabilization of the transition state is possible.The Arrhenius parameters for thermal isomerization in benzene were determined. From the variation observed for the disubstituted derivatives, an estimate of 35.5 kcal mol−1 for the rotational barrier in tetraphenylethylene is obtained. The activation energy for thermal isomerization of the tetrasubstituted derivative is 2 kcal mol−1 lower than those of the other three; this provides an assessment of the importance of merostabilization in this system.The thermal isomerization of some related olefins (e.g. bianthrylidenes and indigo derivatives) is discussed in light of these results.

Butterfly pea flower have great sensory attraction, but they have not yet been used widely in Vietnam. Extracts of butterfly pea flowers can be used conveniently as a natural blue colorant for food products. In this study, the identification of anthocyanin compounds in butterfly pea flowers was performed by UPLC coupled with a UV and Mass spectrometer instrument. Positive and negative ion electrospray MS/MS chromatograms and spectra of the anthocyanin compounds were determined. By analyzing the chromatograms and spectra for each ion, five anthocyanins were identified in the butterfly pea flower extract; these were delphinidin-3-(6”‐p-coumaroyl)-rutinoside, cyanidin 3-(6”-p-coumaroyl)-rutinoside, delphinidin-3-(p-coumaroyl) glucose in both cis- and trans- isomers, cyanidin-3-(p-coumaroyl-glucoside) and delphinidin-3-pyranoside. Additionally, based on their intensity, it was determined that cyanidin-3-(p-coumaroyl-glucoside) was the most abundant anthocyanin, followed by cyanidin 3-(6”-p-coumaroyl)-rutinoside, delphinidin-3-(p-coumaroyl-glucoside), delphinidin-3-(6”-p-coumaroyl)-rutinoside and delphinidin-3-pyranoside. In this study, cyanidin derivatives were discovered in butterfly pea flower extract, where these compounds had not been detected in previous studies.

The malonic ester synthesis of nervonic acid (tetracos-15-enoic acid) has been modified so that the product consists of pure cis rather than a mixture of cis and trans isomers. The modified synthesis has been used for the preparation of C14-labelled erucic and nervonic acids.

Treatment of 16α-bromo-17-oxosteroids 1 and 2 with gaseous ammonia and successive air-oxidation afforded the cis and trans isomers of D-linked bis-steroid pyrazines. Analogous reaction of 1α-bromo-4-nor-5α-cholestan-2-one (3) led to unexpected hydrolysis products.
